Hello! My name is Christian and I am an artist in the south eastern Michigan area. I'll be attending Grad school in the fall for my masters; Three semesters left and I'm in the clear to be a professor and I join the ranks of my career field!

I keep getting told I am incredibly genuine, outgoing, mellow, with a decent sense of humor. That I'm rather serious and mature as well. Also that I am a "talker", and take jokes to their limits.

I paint. I paint a lot.

I've studied abroad to the region of Tuscany for a couple weeks to lean more about Renascence art and modern book making.

I love being active hiking in such places as hawking hills, going to the gym (time permitting), and just honestly going for walks around the countryside.

Along side being active like most I enjoy Netflix and movie nights filled with movies or reading (mainly fiction).

I have a love of auctions and going antiquing.

I love spending my days off driving around to the art museums to do sketching studies, taking mini road trips with friends, and exploring the mitten the best I can.

I go to the gym and am physically active in maintaining myself for the long run. Pun intended.

I love Japanese food, Sea Food, and will eat just about anything but I kind of have a stigma about BBQ.

Museums, Galleries, and book stores are somewhat of a fascination of mine.

I love to hike and camp.

I love to joke around and push bad jokes to the limits. I am looking for someone who can make me smile and laugh.

I love board game nights with close friends. I am burnt out on apples to apples, but I love euchre.

Want a partner who loves to go off the beaten path, but at the same time wouldn't mind hanging out while doing the "boring stuff" (IE: returning pop bottles, long drives to friends house). Then you should message me. I appreciate the little things in life.

I am currently working part time, establishing my artistic practice, all awhile intending to move to grand rapids to attend graduate school and attain my terminal degree in art. Only 3 semester to go and I am DONE WITH SCHOOL!.. unless I decide to go back to school for a degree in social marketing.

Painting, Cooking, Baking, conversing, and pushing bad jokes to the limits.

My smile, my height, my glasses?

Books: The Monster of Florence, The Post Mortal, The Great Gatsby, The Name of the Wind, A Wise Mans Fear, Jade phoenix, Game of Throwns, The Chronicles of the Black Company, Fantasy True Crime, Fiction, and books about Art. I tend to read a lot, so I have a large cash of favorites. I read pretty much everyday for at least an hour+. I much rather do that than watch TV.

My Favorite Movies Are:Avengers, The Amazing Spiderman, V for Vendetta, Thor, East Meets East, Trains Planes Automobiles, Major League, City of Angels, Gladiator, Taken, A Beautiful Mind the list goes

My Favorite Food Are: Sushi! Really most if not all Asian food to me is amazing, LOVE sea food, but I will never say no to fresh fruits and veggies.

Music: I'm not picky about music, I tend to pandora classical music and movie scores a lot though. I am also been exploring Indi rock and can't help but love ambient music.

1) Art
2) Family
3) Phone
4) communication
5) my car/ ability to drive
6) a good meal

What the future holds and my career.

With friends, working, working in the studio, doing homework, just relaxing.

I sing in the shower but I am hard to catch in the act.

If you have a sense of humor, looking to really take things light and breezy, and honestly want to see more than whats in your back yard.

I want a partner to share experiences with, share some views but overall learn new things. A teacher (not to be confused with the profession).

Also, please no debbie downers or people who are eailsy bent out of shape (no sense of humor). I am here to enjoy life and hopefully meet the right person on the way. Its good to be serious, but not too serious, its life.. you'll never get out of alive.
